  • Audi R8 LMS GT2 (2020)
    Audi Sport GmbH Communications Audi Sport customer racing D-85045 Ingolstadt February 2020 MOTORSPORT INFORMATION Audi R8 LMS GT2 (2020) ► Audi in GT2 racing 2 ► Interview with Chris Reinke 3 ► The Audi R8 LMS GT2 4 ► Technical data of the Audi R8 LMS GT2 7 ► Fielding opportunities 8 ► Audi Sport customer racing 9 ► Contact details 10 1/10 Audi in GT2 racing The fascination of the Audi R8 LMS GT2 Since 2019 the Audi R8 LMS GT2 has been setting two top benchmarks in the racing family of the Audi R8 LMS. The race car marks the top end of the program in terms of engine power and top speed. The GT2 concept stands for a unique balance of fascination and lap times that is specifically tailored to suit the needs of gentlemen drivers. As a result, another business segment is opening up for Audi Sport in international GT racing with new opportunities and target groups. In 2019, Audi Sport presented the R8 LMS GT2 for a category that is seeing its first full season in 2020. With it, the brand’s offering grew to four models. Besides the GT3 and the GT4 versions of the Audi R8 LMS the Audi RS 3 LMS touring car ranks among the world’s most popular and successful customer racing models sporting the four rings. The Audi R8 LMS GT2 is almost a little reminiscent of the past: The slim shape of the cockpit and the bodywork featuring the proportions of the Spyder, the spectacular air scoop above the roof, protruding sideblades and the flared fenders emphasize traditional sports car characteristics.

  • Dear Friends, 2019 Is Just Around the Corner
    Dear Friends, 2019 is just around the corner and already looks exciting. You might have heard about some of the planned changes, which are now confirmed below. Firstly, Blancpain GT Series Asia will become Blancpain GT World Challenge Asia, thus aligning the championship with SRO’s other European and American GT3 sprint series. GT4 has also been rebranded – GT4 Asia – and has separate races at most events, although there will be no standalone weekends. DOCUMENT DOWNLOADS • 2019 Calendar • 2018 Media Report • 2019 Blancpain GT World Challenge Asia Entry Form • 2019 GT4 Asia Entry Form • 2019 Blancpain GT World Challenge & GT4 Asia Overview ENTRY FORMS We are officially kicking off the 2019 Blancpain GT World Challenge Asia and GT4 Asia seasons by releasing the entry forms. Also look out for the early bird tariffs and 2019 packages. Entries open on December 1. FORMAT • GT3 and GT4 races will be split at most events while qualifying will be separate at all meetings. • Once again our calendar features six rounds comprising 12x 60-minute races. Korea’s Yeongam circuit joins the schedule, meaning we have six FIA Grade 1 venues for the first time. Together, these represent the best circuits in Asia. • As per 2018, teams will be given opportunities to test at the start of the season at Sepang and mid-season at Suzuka (one-day test). The Suzuka 10 Hours*, Asia’s only round of the expanding Intercontinental GT Challenge, also takes place at the end of August. Further details and entry forms for this event will follow shortly (*the Suzuka 10 Hours is not part of Blancpain GT World Challenge Asia).

  • SRO Motorsports Group and Sean Edwards Foundation Join Forces to Increase Safety
    > BLANCPAIN GT SERIES HOME | > CALENDAR &nbsp| > CONTACT SRO Motorsports Group and Sean Edwards Foundation join forces to increase safety The SRO Motorsports Group and the Sean Edwards Foundation are both looking for ways to make motor racing safer. In a joint partnership a virtual safety test will be developed to further increase the awareness of amateur and rookie drivers and to help them to achieve the level of racing required. Since he became the first ever GT3 champion by winning the inaugural FIA GT3 European title in 2006, Sean Edwards has held a special place in the hearts of all the members of the SRO family. It is with great pleasure that SRO Motorsports Group joins the Sean Edwards Foundation in their bid to implement a number of safety initiatives throughout their series. By educating youngsters, amateurs and gentleman drivers about the importance of upholding personal safety when racing, safety in general will improve. Due to the growing success of the Blancpain GT Series, more and more nationalities are represented. For example, drivers from 31 countries took part in this year’s Total 24 Hours of Spa. To standardize the safety awareness of every driver SRO Motorsports Group will implement one of SEF’s recently announced initiatives: the Sean Edwards Test (SET). Prior to the first race and before the Total 24 Hours of Spa, drivers will take a computer-based safety test. For the drivers who fail the test special coaching sessions will be proposed and SRO Motorsports Group will organise additional drivers briefings to further increase safety. To put the new collaboration between SRO Motorsports Group and the Sean Edwards Foundation in the spotlight, the drivers participating in the penultimate round of the Blancpain Sprint Series at the Belgian track of Zolder joined the #jump4SEF initiative, showing their support for the initiative.
